Everyone here has had to decide what they will and won’t do. Will you take someone in your house? Will you bring them groceries? Will you patrol streets with a whistle? Will you do some other kind of work, of which there are many. And how many of these types.
Friends from Minneapolis reporting to me that things are at the point where folks are being hidden in other people's houses and we are in the "again" part of "never again" which the "never" was supposed to preclude

Does seem funny that people keep attacking you for not doing equality or race stuff when that is like... a large part of your career and work at the U of M?

That's fair and i think pretty correct. The calculations being done by the top dfl people are not the same as what would be best for the people.

In the Skyway 20 minutes after an ice abduction, mayor Frey walks through the government center. A lady yells at him "what are you doing to stop this? Fuck you." He responds, "is that helpful?" With a smirk on his face.

Minnesota is currently under an economic blockade. So @amyklobuchar.com what are you gonna do? How many businesses are we going to lose without a bailout?

always so funny to me when people are like “how am I supposed to explain Gay to my kids?” my kid asks me way harder shit all the time. “why did they build the road this way? why are some people bad?” I don’t know. please ask me about Gay

This is exactly why I do not want Klobuchar to be governor. The MNGOP shenanigans are pretty awful, and Klobuchar has proven time and time again she is all too happy to reach across the aisle and side with conservatives, even when she doesn't have too.
Or, I would wager that politics has to be exhausting now. Just reading about MNGOP shenanigans makes me tired, I can't fathom working with them.
So Ellison stays at AG. Simon stays at SecState. Important roles where effective people do their job with minimal 🐂💩, even though they'd make great govs.

Makes me sick to think people are so scared of being stopped in their cars that they’re keeping their titles there. The car is the worst place to keep your title.

A symptom of the larger problem, nobody wants to step up and make larger change, they just want to keep status quo. That's let Trump shift the overton window so far to the right, but no big name dems are willing to shift it back to the left.

Super Bowl viewers Sunday speculated that 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos appeared in the halftime show. In fact, he has been in hiding with his family.
“He can’t sleep well at night. He wakes up three or four times a night screaming, ‘Daddy, Daddy,’” Liam's father Adrian Conejo Arias, said.

Overall a UBI takes the best elements of welfare (helping people through wealth distribution) while avoiding most of the downfalls (excessive beauracracy and frictions towards purchasing certain items.) A win win all around.

Allowing them to spend certain programs for certain items creates a lot of friction and makes it harder for people to get what they need. If you just give them money, and trust that they know what they themselves need, you'll find that they end up better off.

To a large extent, a UBI is just welfare but done better. A huge hampering of things like Food Stamps and other programs is how many restrictions they have and the beauracracy to manage those restrictions. With a UBI, most of that is gone. Plus, people generally know what they need, only
I continue to believe that this data point is among the strongest arguments for universal basic income. We ALL deserve our slice of that productivity growth. This includes all unpaid workers. The only real way of distributing what amounts to a GDP dividend is UBI. Also the only way to do retroactive

I think this is a great explainer for why our leaders have acted the way they have. Look at the incentives they have, Walz isn't working for Minneapolis, he's working to make Minneapolis not have an uprising. The incentives for those at the top are for them to NOT have fundamental change.
I believe Walz, Frey, Witt, O'Hara genuinely want the ICE surge out of MN and Minneapolis. Some of them genuinely might want all of ICE out for good. At the same time, the ICE surge is not an existential threat to their jobs/careers. The appearance of disorder in the streets is. An uprising is.
